Ingestion and Toxicity of Polystyrene Microplastics in Freshwater Bivalves [PDF]

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2021
Abstract The ubiquity of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems has raised concerns over their interaction with biota. However, microplastics research on freshwater species, especially mollusks, is still scarce. We, therefore, investigated the factors affecting microplastics ingestion in the freshwater mussel Dreissena polymorpha.

Marine Bivalves as a Dietary Source of High-Quality Lipid: A Review with Special Reference to Natural n-3 Long Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids

Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca: Food Science and Technology, 2021
The most important nutritional feature of mollusks is their lipid composition. Marine bivalves are a good source of high quality lipid, mainly because they concentrate eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid.

Mussels with Meat: Bivalve Tissue-Shell Radiocarbon Age Differences and Archaeological Implications [PDF]

, 2012
Local reservoir ages are often estimated from the difference between the radiocarbon ages of aquatic material and associated terrestrial samples for which no reservoir effect is expected.

Effects of the Invasive Freshwater Mussel Limnoperna fortunei on Sediment Properties and Accumulation Rates [PDF]

, 2018
Since its introduction into South America around 1990, the freshwater bivalve Limnoperna fortunei (the golden mussel) has spread rapidly and is now a dominant component of the benthic and periphytic fauna in many rivers, lakes, and reservoirs.

Effects of freshwater input and mariculture (bivalves and macroalgae) on spatial distribution of nanoflagellates in Sungo Bay, China

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2015
Sungo Bay in northern China has been used for rearing bivalves and macroalgae for several decades. The bivalve culture areas (B-area) are located in the bay head, and the macroalgae culture areas (M-area) are located outside of the B-area.

Environmental controls on the distribution of neoselachian sharks and rays within the British Bathonian (Middle Jurassic). [PDF]

, 2003
Extensive sampling from a range of facies within the Bathonian (Middle Jurassic) of southern England has allowed the palaeoenvironmental distribution of a number of taxa of neoselachian sharks and rays to be assessed.

Physiological and Metabolic Responses of Marine Mussels Exposed to Toxic Cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa and Chrysosporum ovalisporum [PDF]

, 2020
Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are a major contaminant in inland aquatic ecosystems. Furthermore, toxic blooms are carried downstream by rivers and waterways to estuarine and coastal ecosystems. Concerning marine and estuarine animal species, very little is
